Mares prefer privacy at foaling time. If possible, mares will delay birth until human observers are not around. Mares generally foal at night. One study, for example, indicated that approximately 80 percent of foals were born between midnight and 6 a.m.
Length of day plays a major role in the mare's heat cycle by influencing the hormones that control it. Horses are long-day seasonal polyestrous breeders, and mares typically come in heat about every 18 to 21 days from April to October.This is nature's way of ensuring that winter weather won't greet foals born 11 months after mating.orses are long-day seasonal polyestrous breeders, and mares typically come in heat about every 18 to 21 days from April to October.
